introducing whole milk...

My BFed son will be 1 years old in a couple of weeks and I am wondering how to introduce whole milk! I am still planning on BFing him in the morning and before bed, but as a working mom who is having a hard time these days with pumping ( plus i have NO supply left!) I am planning on giving him milk during the day. How should i go about doing this??? What will be an easy transition?? How do you think it should be offered as well? Thanks ladies!!!

We started with yogurt and cheese for a few times, just to make sure he did ok with it. After about a week of that we did a small cup of milk with dinner. He broke out in a small rash on his back, so I stopped. We have been doing almond milk since. I will try whole again maybe at 1.5 or two.

We started with yogurt as well. Now I've been giving her about an ounce and her sippy cup in the early afternoon, after a meal. she was grossed out expecting it to be water the first time. Now I put a little in her mouth before I give her the sippy cup and she's happy to have it.

My LO has been eating yogurt and cheese for a few months. I started adding whole milk to her oatmeal. About an ounce mixed with formula in her sippy. She is not really drinking cup so the most she gets is from the oatmeal.
